Trintec Aviator Watch

Trintec makes aviation focused watches, they were the first watchmakers to produce and sell an aviation inspired watch which featured the design elements of an aircraft altimeter. Yes, way before Bell & Ross. Inspired by vintage aircraft clocks from the WWII era through the late 70s, many of these clocks can still be found working in aircraft cockpits today. The primary design objective of these sleek timepieces was to retain as many of the design characteristics of the original aircraft clocks as possible, and to transform the design elements into a very unique and functional aviation inspired wrist watch.

You can pick one up for a special price of almost 40%off! (until May 23rd) at Touch of Modern
